- Continuing a tradition that started the previous year, the winner of the New Music Seminar's DJ Battle for World Supremacy faces the previous year's winner, and this time it's two San Francisco DJs: 1992 Champion Mixmaster Mike and 1993 winner DJ 8-Ball. Who will win the Battle for the Bay?

The quality of this footage is amazing....crystal clear👌.
First round goes to 8-Ball but 2nd round definitely goes to Mike cause it's the best from the whole tournament.
I VOTE 8-BALL. RESPECT ONLY TO MIXMASTER MIKE.
You certainly don't see crowds like that anymore.
Love that can't stop the rock tone routine
great
Thanks for all the videos
My jaw dropped when he started it, best tone routine ever...

Early 90’s, for sure fight in the parking lot afterward
great battle both true legends
Both legends. Mmm seemed to have a slight edge with his ability to warp the tempo and throw up 8balls tricks and add to them. Thars the advantage of going 2nd if your quick on your feet and can adapt thats fast
Dude this was sick as well but I'm not sure I still think Mike has something about his style that just always makes him insane!! Like 8-Ball was incredible but Mike made me smile uncontrollably and nod my head. Personal favorite I guess :)
I get what you mean. I know them both in real life, and Mike is a much more outgoing, magnetic personality. It comes through in their performances. That said, I think 8-Ball's routine in round 1 was more captivating, but Mike's second set was the best of the four.
Yeah totally that makes sense. That's sweet that you know them in real life too! Yeah I've seen Mike in some videos and he definitely seems like that. I heard that when there were some championships they asked MMM and Q-Bert not to attend because it was like too easy of a win for them and other DJs didn't want to show up which I thought was pretty funny
yea mike just fn owns this shit every time. starts all that crazy wickety-wack scratching that blows my fn Mind
Nah, they made that up, just to build up hype around themselves. It worked a treat as well, because I read countless magazine articles back in the day that mentioned it.
What's 8-Ball up to nowadays? I know he made a little comeback a few years back, in the online DMC battle, when he teamed up with a young guy, but I haven't heard anything of him since.
Realmente es incomparable la VIEJA ESCUELA....los djs todo lo asian con pasion...saludos desde chile & ALTO BPM MIX Lito Master DJ 2023...
This was the illest battle
Hey Greg,really appreciate this footage.Do you have anymore old MMM to dig up?
Dope ...
Cette énergie 🔥🔥
one of the best dj battles going i think 8 ball won with ease with that first mix..
Yo what is the beat that come after the “you can get the finger” part from 8-ball in the 2nd round? Dont roast me if its something obvious
I think i's Monie Love, "Monie in the Middle," though I was never much of a fan of hers, so it may be one of her other tracks.
thank you. time to listen to every monie love song haha

Thanks for the beautiful cuts. Does anyone know the track ID of 8-ball’s second track??
Eric B & Rakim Eric B is President
Anyone know what song 8ball “sampled” in the beginning? It almost reminded me of afrika Bambatta or something. Anyone know?
He's playing "Don't Stop the Rock" by Freestyle, and manipulating the pitch on a record from, I believe, DJ Rectangle that's just a long "nyaaaaa" noise to play the tune over the song.
@Trace Pyott
It was a track off of MC A.D.E's album. I believe it was the same one that had "Transformer" on it but can't remember the exact track name.
Cheee yea!!!👍👍👍
Dope ❤
who is The winner ??
Everybody’s head moving to MMM. Check 8 ball’s second round, the people behind him can’t feel the groove.
Tie straight up !
Mix master Mike vs dj 8-ball
Following the is you to Have a big mix masters Mike
What song does mike use for "It's the mix master"?
Funny story-- about a month ago I asked myself the same question. I *knew* I had the record somewhere, and I was *sure* it was by UTFO, but I simply couldn't remember which one, so I posted on Facebook asking. Who responded? None other than Kangol Kid of UTFO, telling me it was the song "Kangol & Doc."
You'll hear it about 4 1/2 minutes into the song: czcams.com/video/3IIhJkI1n0o/video.html
@@GregoryGioia Thanks man been looking forever and its been driving me crazy
Utfo

DJ 8-Ball LEGEND!

DJ 8BALL SUPERO LEJOS
There is a Cannabis Strain named 8 Ball Kush:)
Same 8 Ball from the Shiggar Fragger shows... ISP ??? Ps does anyone know when MMM is gonna drop another sick lp??? ;)
Probably the same guy. He's from the same part of the Bay Area and friends with Q-Bert and the rest of those guys.
Yes the same. 😁
Thank God for the emcee
??? He sucked. Killing all the energy in the room & making it all about himself
@@edub9930 I think that was my point, can't remember now 😄
8-Ball killed it!
Mike won.... hands down.
Both it a tie
8-Ball should've used the first set second tbh
At the time, that was like his signature set, and I remember being surprised he didn't bust it out during the actual battle. Apparently he was that confident in winning that he saved it for the post-victory battle with Mike. And yeah, that should have come second... unless he didn't know it was two rounds with Mike, kind of how Supreme the previous year thought it was three.
@@GregoryGioia
Yeah I saved that set for Mike. I assumed it was gonna b 2 rounds but thought it best to open with DSTR just for crowd. 🙂
@@dj8ball1993nms that makes sense. Also, what's up man? I haven't seen you since you were working at the music shop. It's been like almost 30 years!! Are you still DJing?
@@GregoryGioia
Wow from the DJ store? That is waaaaaay back. I DJ once in awhile and do special appearances/video (check Rob Swift's latest Master Class). 😁
💪🏻❤️🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷🫡

t's Kris Kross - Warm It Up (Wicked Mix
Never rated Mix master, hectic scratching and no innovation. 8 ball hands down. uNless u like scribble scrathing (with no rhytm)
I have to disagree with this. His scratching is very innovative-- the tweak scratch is craziness, and was light years beyond anything at the time this was filmed, and a scratch I've heard few DJs credibly replicate to this day. He is not a beat juggler or flare scratcher, rather he is much more of a freestyle scratcher, and among the best. 8-Ball is entertaining, but he's something of a one-trick pony, no?
no innovation I TAKE THAT BACK, he was mad sharp on that fader
@@GregoryGioia Chek this czcams.com/video/ZiJTeDQGbyo/video.html pure rhythm....
MM far more advanced but 8 Ball entertaining start.
@@GregoryGioia Not heard of a tweak scratch, what is it?
